Description
Quick and crowd-pleasing chocolate and peanut butter pinwheels that require no baking, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (14 oz / 396 g) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup (about 170 g) chocolate chips (semi-sweet)
- 1 cup (about 250 g) creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups (about 240 g) powdered sugar (confectioners’ sugar)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons (about 15 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and peanut butter over medium heat. Stir until melted and smooth.
- Remove from heat and add the vanilla extract, stirring to incorporate.
- In a separate bowl, mix the powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Gradually stir this dry mixture into the warm chocolate mixture until well combined.
- Divide the mixture in half. Leave one half unflavored and mix extra cocoa powder into the other half to create the darker chocolate layer.
- Place a piece of parchment paper on a flat surface, and spread the unflavored mixture into a rectangle (about 8×10 inches). Then spread the chocolate mixture on top in an even layer.
- Roll the layers tightly together, using the parchment paper to assist in the rolling.
- Wrap the rolled pinwheel in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm.
- Once set, unwrap and slice into rounds to serve.
Notes
For chunkier texture, fold in chopped roasted peanuts. For nut-free, use sunflower seed butter. To lower sugar, replace powdered sugar with erythritol blends suitable for baking.
